The former head of commercial mortgages at Aldermore brings with him more than 35 years of experience in the financial sector, where he has specialised in buy-to-let and commercial mortgages.
Before joining Aldermore, Ian was a local director and head of mortgages at Lloyds Bank for its northern England network and had previously served as a regional premier manager for HSBC.
At LendInvest, Ian will be responsible for leading the growing business development team and helping to introduce the lender’s expanding product range to new markets.
“Joining LendInvest at a time when it is ramping up both its regional presence and rapidly expanding product range is very exciting,” said Ian.

“To work within a team that is so keen to innovate and remain ahead of the curve when it comes to product development is brilliant.
“Getting stuck in from day one is something I have always enjoyed, so this is the perfect opportunity for me to hit the ground running.”
Matthew Tooth, chief commercial officer at LendInvest, said it was great to have someone of Ian’s calibre joining to lead the sales team.
“This year our sales team has grown in direct response to the demand we are seeing in the market.
“Bringing years of sector experience with him, Ian has a unique skill set that makes me confident he is the right [person] to be driving our business into new areas, both regionally and from a product perspective.”
